Chapter 609 Going around the bend Zuo Shaoyang waved his hand and motioned Zuo Gui to attach his ear, and said in a low voice: "The emperor is suffering from a terminal illness this time, and there is no way to cure it. I will step forward and cure him. All sins will be done." The imperial doctor wants me to carry this rotten piece of wood on my head. Dad, do you still think I should go?" "Terminally ill?" Zuo Gui was stunned and said in a low voice, "You haven't even seen the emperor yet. How do you know it¡¯s a terminal illness?¡± Zuo Shaoyang learned from history that Emperor Li Shimin died in the 23rd year of Zhenguan, that is, this year. If I had saved his life, then the whole history would really be a mess. It¡¯s not that he has a sense of historical responsibility, but he feels that more than a hundred years after the rule of Zhenguan, the Tang Dynasty was peaceful and the people were peaceful, and it became the economic and cultural center of the world. If he messes up history, the Tang Dynasty may become more prosperous, but it is very likely to fall into What a mess. I don¡¯t know how many lives have been devastated. It is better to be still than to move, and it is better to be a passer-by of history. Naturally, Zuo Gui's father didn't know that Zuo Shaoyang could predict the future, so he asked him why he knew that the emperor was suffering from a terminal illness. Zuo Shaoyang couldn't tell him how he knew. He rolled his eyes and pretended to be mysterious. The voice said: "Father, don't forget, I have been the Dharma King in the Western Region for fifteen years! I have practiced a lot of Western Region spells. I still know a little about astrology and divination. I have been observing the sky at night, so I have Knowing this secret, father must not spread it, otherwise we will all be in danger of our lives!" Zuo Gui looked at Zuo Shaoyang dubiously, seeing that he was serious and didn't seem to be joking, thinking that it was impossible to joke about this kind of thing! , if it is true what his son said, that the emperor is suffering from a terminal illness, and he is destined to die whether he goes or not, then of course it is better not to go. Father Zuo Gui glanced at the vigilant imperial guards everywhere in the courtyard and the eunuchs and maids lining up at the door, and said with a bitter face: "But, the empress and the prince" "You don't have to worry about this, I will take care of everything. As long as you don't help them persuade me, things will be easy to handle." Zuo Gui nodded and returned to the lobby with a sad face, sitting there in a daze. Ms. Liang and the other girls didn¡¯t know what Zuo Shaoyang said to Zuo Gui, which made him so lost. They also sat on the high chair in the lobby and remained silent. The children didn¡¯t care that there were so many, they were already running around in front of and behind each other. Mother Miao limped behind and warned her not to fall. The ones who made the most fuss were Bai Zhihan's son and daughter, because Bai Zhihan loved them the most. Not only was she reluctant to beat or scold them, but she would also protect others' harsh words with a sullen face. So these two guys are a devil (female). Zuo Shaoyang lay on the recliner with great interest, watching the children playing in the courtyard. Bai Zhihan was also very happy. If it were normal, Zuo Shaoyang would definitely say that he would let the children go back to review their homework and memorize medical books. Now he doesn't even say anything, obviously he is in a good mood. As a woman, she only wants her husband to be happy and her wish is fulfilled, so what else can he ask for? After waiting for another half an hour, a father-in-law hurriedly ran in: "Miracle doctor, the empress and the prince are here. Please ask the doctor and you to pick them up!" Suddenly the drums and music were blaring, and the sound of silk and bamboo was lingering, which reminded Zuo Shaoyang of "" The scene of the first spring wedding in "A Dream of Red Mansions" is not like visiting someone's home to ask for medical advice. It's like the empress has gone home. Looking back, I saw that Zuo Gui¡¯s father and the rest of the family had split into two sides, fighting with each other, and they didn¡¯t know where to put their hands and feet. Then, groups of palace maids and eunuchs walked into the courtyard holding various banners and fluttering streamers. Then, yellow umbrellas were held high in the air. Under the umbrellas were golden sedans, all of which were supported by eight people. , wandering in, one after another, in an endless stream, as if there is no end. Fortunately, the courtyard of Zuo's old house is very spacious. The sedan chairs were parked one by one on both sides of the yard in an orderly manner. Only two sedan chairs were parked in the middle of the yard. Eunuch Luo has been following the first sedan. After stopping, he bowed and gently rolled up the sedan curtain. A gust of fragrant wind hit his nostrils, and a woman came out. This woman has a hairpin on her head slanted, her temples cover her ears, she has an oval face, her eyebrows are swept, and her skin is like cream. She wears a green coat with a white gauze inner cover, a high-waisted pleated skirt, a long belt around her waist, and a long scarf on her shoulders. . Although the clothes are simple and elegant, they do not hide their grace and elegance, making people unable to look at her. Naturally, Zuo Shaoyang, a middle-aged lady, recognized that she was the eldest grandson of the current emperor Li Shimin, the empress! A man in golden clothes came down from a sedan chair next to him. He was walking with a limp, but it was Prince Li Chengqian! Historically, Li Chengqian rebelled in the 16th year of Zhenguan. The crown prince was subsequently abolished, and Li Chengqian died in Qianzhou, where he was demoted. It is now the twenty-third year of Zhenguan, and Li Chengqian is still alive and still the prince. The reason is very simple. After Zuo Shaoyang cured Li Yuan, Li Yuan came back from the dead and became insane and wanted to take back the throne. As a result, Li Tai, who was competing with Li Chengqian for the throne, was killed.Now, no one is competing with him for the crown prince position, so the crown prince will always be his. Zuo Gui and others were already cheering and kowtowing to the ground, but Zuo Shaoyang just stepped forward and bowed: "See the Queen and His Royal Highness." Both Queen Changsun and the Prince knew that Zuo Shaoyang claimed to be a living dead. He didn't even kowtow when he saw the emperor. Let alone meet them. Not surprising, he waved his hands and said: "The miracle doctor is exempt from the courtesy. Everyone is exempt from the courtesy. Get up!" Qiao Qiaoer and the others had already knelt and got up, but when they saw Zuo Gui's father still lying there, they knelt down again. Zuo Shaoyang had no choice but to walk over and help his frightened father up, and then the others got up. Prince Li Chengqian smiled and said: "Miracle Doctor Zuo, since you have been in the Western Regions for more than ten years, everyone has been thinking about you." Zuo Shaoyang said: "Thank you for your concern, Your Highness. I didn't know that you, Prince and Empress, arrived and didn't come far to greet you. Please forgive me. "It's a crime." "Okay, even if I inform you, you won't go far away." The prince still smiled. At this time, the people on both sides of the sedan have already got off the sedan. Zuo Shaoyang glanced at it and quickly looked away, but it turned out that all the sedans parked on the left side of the yard were the emperor's concubines! He glanced to the right, and in front of the sedan were rows of boys and girls, the younger ones were five or six years old, the older ones were in their teens. They are all wearing royal golden clothes. After listening to Empress Changsun's introduction, I found out that in addition to the children of Emperor Li Shimin, there were also the children of Prince Li Chengqian and all the married princes and princesses! ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? Zuo Shaoyang couldn't help but growl in his stomach, are Emperor Li Shimin and his family all here? Empress Changsun came to visit with her concubines, sons, daughters, and grandchildren. What on earth was she going to do? ?Looking at this posture, I¡¯m afraid it¡¯s not good. "Shaoyang!" Zuo Shaoyang heard a very familiar call in his ear, and was filled with surprise. He turned his head and looked along the sound, and saw Xiao Yunfei who was equally happy and sad! "Yun'er!" Zuo Shaoyang said happily, wanting to run over to meet him, but the queen and the prince were here, so he raised his hand and waved. Queen Changsun seemed not to notice, and glanced at the attendant who was holding a golden scroll. The chamberlain shouted in a high voice: "Zuo Gui, a doctor in Hezhou, and his original wife Liang, kneel down to welcome the imperial edict!" Zuo Gui and Liang were both panicked like headless chickens. When they heard this, they didn't even know what to do. Qiao Qiaoer hurriedly came over to help Liang's arm and whispered: "Old Master, Old Madam, kneel down quickly to receive the order." Only then did the two of them wake up, and hurriedly knelt down with a grunt, their heads resting on the bluestone ground, their whole bodies Lying down, I don¡¯t know how ugly the posture is. The chamberlain unfolded the golden scroll and said loudly: "Under my sect, Zuo Gui, a doctor from Hezhou, who hangs pots to help the world, has a skillful hand and a benevolent heart, is named the Golden Purple Guanglu Doctor. He is also granted the title of Third Grade Madam. Your Majesty." Zuo Shaoyang listened on the side and understood immediately. Yes, the emperor is taking a detour to save the country. Make a wish for yourself to be a marquis, but you don't want it. You have no choice but to flatter your parents in a roundabout way and canonize your parents. You will have nothing to say. In the future, the old man Zuo Gui will definitely help the emperor to force him to do things. This move is really powerful. Zuo Gui, who was on the ground, was so panicked that his head was like a ball of mush. He didn't understand the specific content of the imperial decree at all, but he only knew that the emperor had appointed officials to himself and his wife. As for the official, I didn't hear clearly. Mr. Liang is uneducated and more panicked than her husband Zuo Gui, so she doesn't understand even more. He just knelt on the ground and didn't move. The Zuo family members were all smiling after hearing this. Seeing that Zuo Shaoyang was indifferent, Qiao Qiaoer had to kneel down beside Zuo Gui's father and whisper: "Old Master, thank you quickly and accept the order!" Zuo Gui suddenly understood, and kowtowed quickly: "Thank you Lord for your kindness! I, I accept the order!" Mrs. Liang also stammered and said to her husband: "Thank you, thank you for your kindness!" Zuo Wenyuan, the legitimate son of Zuo Shaoyang, rushed up to help Zuo Gui, and Qiao Qiaoer helped Mrs. Liang get up. Father Zuo Gui tremblingly accepted the imperial edict and wanted to laugh, but it was uglier than crying. The maid next to her carried a large red lacquered box covered in red and colorful decorations and placed it in front of Zuo Gui. The chamberlain said: "Lord Zuo, here are your official robes and your royal robes. Please accept them." Zuo Gui trembled and opened the lid of the big box and took a look, and saw that there were indeed things in the box. Several sets of official robes and official uniforms made him even more panicked: "This is, is this for me?" "Yes. You will quickly change into official robes later. When you see the empress and the prince from now on, you will all wear official robes." "Yes," Zuo Gui nodded and agreed, and asked again: "What kind of official am I?" The chamberlain smiled and said, "Congratulations, sir, the emperor has appointed you a third-grade casual official!" Mrs. Sanpingaoming!¡± Zuo Gui was confused. After hearing this official title, he finally found some soul: "Third rank? This, oh, so, so high." "Isn't that right? How about the emperor being left-handed to you? There is no better home. Throughout the ages, you are the first doctor to be awarded the title of third-grade official. Congratulations, sir! " "Thank you, thank you very much." Zuo Gui seemed to suddenly remember something and hurriedly took out his wallet. Without counting, they were all given to the edict-proclaiming chamberlain. The empress was at the side, so the chamberlain dared not answer her, so she shook her head with a smile and backed away. Just as Zuo Gui was about to give him the money, Empress Changsun had already smiled and said to Zuo Gui: "Zuo Qing, I, you ladies, and the children would like to stay in your mansion for a few days. Is it possible?" Zuo Gui is still here. I was in a daze under high tension, holding my money bag and not knowing what to do. Qiao Qiaoer, who was next to her, was after all a child of an official family. She had seen many big scenes. Although she was nervous, she could still handle it. She hurriedly whispered to Zuo Gui: "Old Master! The Queen is talking to you! Old Master!" "Huh?" Zuo Gui responded in panic and turned to look at her. Qiao Qiaoer said to the eldest grandson, Queen: "The Queen and the others want to stay in our house for a while, can you please do that?" "Okay, okay, okay!" Zuo Gui agreed hastily. He bowed to the queen again and again: "This humble house is so simple I'm afraid that I'll neglect the empress and, all the princes and princesses" "It's already very good." Empress Changsun said to Liang, "Then that's it. Madam, please lead the way. Let's stay here first and then talk. I'm really tired along the way." He turned to Zuo Shaoyang and said, "Miracle doctor, you and Princess Feiyang should also catch up on old times." After that, there was a fragrance. The wind passed by Zuo Shaoyang and walked inside. The concubines, princes and princesses followed behind. Zuo Gui and Liang were still a little at a loss. Eunuch Luo hurriedly whispered: "Hurry up and lead the way!" The two of them came to their senses. With Qiao Qiaoer's support, Liang quickly followed, leading the queen and others. Go inside. Xiao Yunfei flew in front of Zuo Shaoyang like a swallow, and wanted to throw herself into his arms, but she was embarrassed. Zuo Shaoyang didn't care so much, grabbed her hand, pulled her and ran into the side room, closed the door, The two hugged each other tightly and fell on the soft couch. This intimate session was truly tender and heart-wrenching. The pain of separation for fifteen years was poured into this passionate kiss. After finally holding each other's arms and talking, Zuo Shaoyang didn't care to talk about the separation after goodbye, and asked: "What does the queen want to do when she comes to our house in such a big way and gives my parents official posts?" Xiao Yunfei glared at him resentfully. A glance: "How do I know!" "Why don't you know?" "Why should I know?" "Didn't you come together?" "Yes, but the queen just told us to go to Hezhou to find you together, and she didn't say anything else. I didn¡¯t say it. I¡¯m probably here to beg you to treat the emperor¡¯s illness. You have so much pride and so many people come to beg you, right?¡± Zuo Shaoyang hugged her and kissed her: ¡°Where am I?¡± Why, I really can¡¯t cure the emperor¡¯s illness. It¡¯s useless if you don¡¯t go!¡± ¡°Do you want me to go or does your mother want me to go?¡± Xiao Yunfei looked dark: "My mother passed away from illness two years ago" "Ah?" Zuo Shaoyang was shocked, "Why didn't you ask me to come back? If I knew, I would have come back to treat her!" Xiao Yunfei shook his head sadly: " There were no signs beforehand. That night, she said she was not feeling well and asked to call the imperial doctor, but she said no. As a result, she found out the next day that she had gone" Zuo Shaoyang stayed for a long time and hugged Xiao Yunfei tightly. Kissed: "I'm sorry" "What are you sorry for? Even if you were in Hezhou, it was too late to save her. Okay, let's not talk about these sad things" "That's right!" Zuo Shaoyang said again Haosheng kissed her for a while to comfort her, and then said: "The emperor's illness is not very important, right?" "Yes, - how do you know that the emperor's illness is not important?" Ro! ~!
